Enum nom::Err

source ·
pub enum Err<E> {
    Incomplete(Needed),
    Error(E),
    Failure(E),
}
Expand description

The Err enum indicates the parser was not successful

It has three cases:

  • Incomplete indicates that more data is needed to decide. The Needed enum can contain how many additional bytes are necessary. If you are sure your parser is working on full data, you can wrap your parser with the complete combinator to transform that case in Error
  • Error means some parser did not succeed, but another one might (as an example, when testing different branches of an alt combinator)
  • Failure indicates an unrecoverable error. As an example, if you recognize a prefix to decide on the next parser to apply, and that parser fails, you know there’s no need to try other parsers, you were already in the right branch, so the data is invalid

Variants§

§

Incomplete(Needed)

There was not enough data

§

Error(E)

The parser had an error (recoverable)

§

Failure(E)

The parser had an unrecoverable error: we got to the right branch and we know other branches won’t work, so backtrack as fast as possible

Implementations§

Tests if the result is Incomplete

Applies the given function to the inner error

Automatically converts between errors if the underlying type supports it

Maps Err<(T, ErrorKind)> to Err<(U, ErrorKind)> with the given F: T -> U

Maps Err<error::Error<T>> to Err<error::Error<U>> with the given F: T -> U
